May-Hegglin anomaly (MHA) is a rare autosomal dominant platelet disorder characterized by the triad of giant platelets, thrombocytopenia and leukocyte inclusions. Both the molecular and the genetic defects responsible for this disorder remain unknown. In order to map the gene responsible for MHA, we performed a genome-wide linkage study using highly polymorphic short tandem repeat markers in a single Japanese MHA family. Significant linkage was obtained for the markers on the long arm of chromosome 22 (22q12.3-q13.2), with a maximum two-point lod score of 4.52 at a recombination fraction of 0.00 for the markers D22S1142 and D22S277. Haplotype analysis mapped a critical region for the disease locus to a 13.6-centimorgan region, between D22S280 and D22S272. The relative proximity of the platelet GPIbbeta gene (22q11.2) to this region, as well as its involvement in an isolated giant platelet disorder, suggested a possible involvement of GPIbbeta mutations in MHA. However, DNA-sequencing analysis in two patients revealed no abnormality in the sequence of the GPIbbeta gene. This is the first report of linkage for MHA, and further analysis of this locus may lead to the identification of a gene the product of which regulates platelet and leukocyte morphology. 相似文献

Macrothrombocytopenia with leukocyte inclusions (May-Hegglin anomaly) is a rare autosomal dominant disorder characterized by thrombocytopenia, giant platelets, and D?hle body-like inclusions in leukocytes. To determine the genetic basis of this disorder, we performed a genome-wide screen for linkage in three families with May-Hegglin anomaly. For the pooled analysis of the three families, three markers on chromosome 22 had two-point logarithm-of-difference (lod) scores greater than 3, with a maximum lod score of 3.91 at a recombination fraction (theta) of 0.076 for marker D22S683. Within the largest family (MHA-1), the maximum lod score was 5.36 at theta=0 at marker D22S445. Fine mapping of recombination events using eight adjacent markers indicated that the minimal disease region of family MHA-1 alone is in the approximately 26 cM region from D22S683 to the telomere. The maximum lod score for the three families combined was 5.84 at theta=0 for marker IL2RB. With the assumption of locus homogeneity, haplotype analysis of family MHA-4 indicated the disease region is centromeric to marker D22S1045. These data best support a minimal disease region from D22S683 to D22S1045, a span of about 1 Mb of DNA that contains 17 known genes and 4 predicted genes. Further analysis of this region will identify the genetic basis of May-Hegglin anomaly, facilitating subsequent characterization of the biochemical role of the disease gene in platelet formation. 相似文献

Cataracts are the leading cause of blindness in most countries. Although most hereditary cases appear to follow an autosomal dominant pattern of inheritance, autosomal recessive inheritance has been clearly documented and is probably underrecognized. We studied a large family-from a relatively isolated geographic region-whose members were affected by autosomal recessive adult-onset pulverulent cataracts. We mapped the disease locus to a 14-cM interval at a novel disease locus, 9q13-q22 (between markers D9S1123 and D9S257), with a LOD score of 4.7. The study of this progressive and age-related cataract phenotype may provide insight into the cause of the more common sporadic form of age-related cataracts. 相似文献

Stargardt disease (STGD) is the most common hereditary macular dystrophy and is characterized by decreased central vision, atrophy of the macula and underlying retinal-pigment epithelium, and frequent presence of prominent flecks in the posterior pole of the retina. STGD is most commonly inherited as an autosomal recessive trait, but many families have been described in which features of the disease are transmitted in an autosomal dominant manner. A recessive locus has been identified on chromosome 1p (STGD1), and dominant loci have been mapped to both chromosome 13q (STGD2) and chromosome 6q (STGD3). In this study, we describe a kindred with an autosomal dominant Stargardt-like phenotype. A genomewide search demonstrated linkage to a locus on chromosome 4p, with a maximum LOD score of 5.12 at a recombination fraction of.00, for marker D4S403. Analysis of extended haplotypes localized the disease gene to an approximately 12-cM interval between loci D4S1582 and D4S2397. Therefore, this kindred establishes a new dominant Stargardt-like locus, STGD4. 相似文献

Evidence for a major gene (RP10) for autosomal dominant retinitis pigmentosa on chromosome 7q: linkage mapping in a second,unrelated family 总被引:7,自引:0,他引:7

Retinitis pigmentosa is a genetically heterogeneous form of retinal degeneration, which has X-linked, autosomal recessive and autosomal dominant forms. The disease genes in families with autosomal dominant retinitis pigmentosa (adRP) have been linked to six loci, on 3q, 6p, 7p, 7q, 8q and 19q. In a large American family with late-onset adRP, microsatellite markers were used to test for linkage to the loci on 3q, 6p, 7p, 7q and 8q. Linkage was found to 7q using the marker D7S480. Additional microsatellite markers from 7q were then tested. In total, five markers, D7S480, D7S514, D7S633, D7S650 and D7S677, show statistically significant evidence for link-age in this family, with a maximum two-point lod score of 5.3 at 0% recombination from D7S514. These results confirm an earlier report of linkage to an adRP locus (RP10) in an unrelated family of Spanish origin and indicate that RP10 may be a significant gene for inherited retinal degeneration. In addition, we used recently reported microsatellite markers from 7q to refine the linkage map of the RP10 locus. 相似文献

A new locus for autosomal dominant dilated cardiomyopathy identified on chromosome 6q12-q16 总被引:5,自引:0,他引:5 下载免费PDF全文

Dilated cardiomyopathy (DCM) is a heart-muscle disease characterized by ventricular dilatation and impaired heart contraction and is heterogeneous both clinically and genetically. To date, 12 candidate disease loci have been described for autosomal dominant DCM. We report the identification of a new locus on chromosome 6q12-16 in a French family with 9 individuals affected by the pure form of autosomal dominant DCM. This locus was found by using a genomewide search after exclusion of all reported disease loci and genes for DCM. The maximum pairwise LOD score was 3.52 at recombination fraction 0.0 for markers D6S1644 and D6S1694. Haplotype construction delineated a region of 16.4 cM between markers D6S1627 and D6S1716. This locus does not overlap with two other disease loci that have been described in nonpure forms of DCM and have been mapped on 6q23-24 and 6q23. The phospholamban, malic enzyme 1-soluble, and laminin-alpha4 genes were excluded as candidate genes, using single-strand conformation polymorphism or linkage analysis. 相似文献

The May-Hegglin anomaly (MHA) is an autosomal dominant platelet disorder of unknown etiology. It is characterized by thrombocytopenia, giant platelets, and leukocyte inclusion bodies, and affected heterozygotes are predisposed to bleeding episodes. The MHA gene has recently been localized, by means of linkage analysis, to a 13.6-cM region on chromosome 22, and the complete chromosome 22 sequence has been reported. We recently performed a genome scan for the MHA gene in 29 members of a large, multigenerational Italian family, and we now confirm that the MHA locus is on chromosome 22q12. 3-13.1. The maximal two-point LOD score of 4.50 was achieved with the use of marker D22S283, at a recombination fraction of.05. Haplotype analysis narrowed the MHA critical region to 6.6 cM between markers D22S683 and D22S1177. It is of note that the chromosome 22 sequence allowed all markers to be ordered correctly, identified all the candidate genes and predicted genes, and specifically determined the physical size of the MHA region to be 0. 7 Mb. These results significantly narrow the region in which the MHA gene is located, and they represent the first use of chromosome 22 data to positionally clone a disease gene. 相似文献

DFNA23, a novel locus for autosomal dominant nonsyndromic hearing loss, was identified in a Swiss German kindred. DNA samples were obtained from 22 family members in three generations: 10 with hearing impairment caused by the DFNA23 locus, 8 unaffected offspring, and 4 spouses of hearing-impaired pedigree members. In this kindred, the hearing-impaired family members have prelingual bilateral symmetrical hearing loss. All audiograms from hearing-impaired individuals displayed sloping curves, with hearing ability ranging from normal hearing to mild hearing loss in low frequencies, normal hearing to profound hearing loss in mid frequencies, and moderate to profound hearing loss in high frequencies. A conductive component existed for 50% of the hearing-impaired family members. The majority of the hearing-impaired family members did not display progression of hearing loss. The DFNA23 locus maps to 14q21-q22. Linkage analysis was carried out under a fully penetrant autosomal dominant mode of inheritance with no phenocopies. A maximum multipoint LOD score of 5.1 occurred at Marker D14S290. The 3.0-LOD unit support interval is 9.4 cM and ranged from marker D14S980 to marker D14S1046. 相似文献

Intermediate Charcot-Marie-Tooth neuropathy (CMT) is an inherited sensory motor neuropathy characterized by motor median nerve conduction velocities of 25-45 m/s. We performed a genomewide search in an Italian family with autosomal dominant intermediate CMT and mapped the locus on chromosome 10q. Analysis of key recombinants maps the gene for autosomal dominant intermediate CMT to a 10.7-Mb interval on chromosome 10q24.1-q25.1, between simple tandem repeat markers D10S1709 and D10S1795. 相似文献

Dilated cardiomyopathy (DCM) is a leading cause of heart failure and the most frequent indication for heart transplantation in young patients. Probably >25% of DCM cases are of familial etiology. We report here genetic localization in a three-generation German family with 12 affected individuals with autosomal dominant familial DCM characterized by ventricular dilatation, impaired systolic function, and conduction disease. After exclusion of known DCM loci, we performed a whole-genome screen and detected linkage of DCM to chromosome 2q14-q22. Investigation of only affected individuals defines a 24-cM interval between markers D2S2224 and D2S2324; when unaffected individuals are also included, the critical region decreases to 11 cM between markers D2S2224 and D2S112, with a peak LOD score of 3.73 at recombination fraction 0 at D2S2339. The identification of an additional locus for familial autosomal dominant DCM underlines the genetic heterogeneity and may assist in the elucidation of the causes of this disease. 相似文献

Otosclerosis is a common disorder of the otic capsule resulting in hearing impairment in 0.3–0.4% of the Caucasian population.
The aetiology of the disease remains unclear. In most cases, otosclerosis can be considered as a complex disease. In some
cases, the disease is inherited as an autosomal dominant trait, sometimes with reduced penetrance. To date, seven autosomal
dominant loci have been reported, but none of the disease-causing genes has been identified. In this study, we present the
results of a genome-wide linkage analysis in a large Tunisian family segregating autosomal dominant otosclerosis. Linkage
analysis localised the responsible gene to chromosome 9p13.1-9q21.11 with a maximal LOD score of 4.13, and this locus was
named OTSC8. Using newly generated short tandem repeat polymorphism markers, we mapped this new otosclerosis locus to a 34.16 Mb interval
between the markers D9S970 and D9S1799. This region comprises the pericentromeric region on both arms of chromosome 9, a highly
complex region containing many duplicated sequences.

Localization of the gene for autosomal recessive congenital hereditary endothelial dystrophy (CHED2) to chromosome 20 by homozygosity mapping. 总被引:3,自引:0,他引:3
Congenital hereditary endothelial dystrophy (CHED) is a corneal disorder that presents with diffuse bilateral corneal clouding. Vision may be severely impaired, and many patients require corneal transplantation. Both autosomal dominant (AD) and autosomal recessive (AR) forms of the disorder have been described. The gene responsible for AD CHED (HGMW-approved symbol CHED1) has been mapped to the pericentromeric region of chromosome 20. Investigating a large, consanguineous Irish pedigree with autosomal recessive CHED, we have previously excluded linkage to this AD CHED locus. We now describe a genome-wide search using homozygosity mapping and DNA pooling. Evidence of linkage to chromosome 20p was demonstrated with a maximum lod score of 9.30 at a recombination fraction of 0.0 using microsatellite marker D20S482. A region of homozygosity in all affected individuals was identified, narrowing the disease gene locus to an 8-cM region flanked by markers D20S113 and D20S882. This AR CHED (HGMW-approved symbol CHED2) disease gene locus is physically and genetically distinct from the AD CHED locus. 相似文献

Hereditary non-syndromic sensorineural hearing loss (NSSHL) is a genetically highly heterogeneous group of disorders. Autosomal dominant forms account for up to 20% of cases. To date, 39 loci have been identified by linkage analysis of affected families that segregate NSSHL forms in the autosomal dominant mode (DFNA). Investigation of a large Spanish pedigree with autosomal dominant inheritance of bilateral and progressive NSSHL of postlingual onset excluded linkage to known DFNA loci and, in a subsequent genome-wide scan, the disorder locus was mapped to 3q28-29. A maximum two-point LOD score of 4.36 at theta=0 was obtained for marker D3S1601. Haplotype analysis placed the novel locus, DFNA44, within a 3-cM genetic interval defined by markers D3S1314 and D3S2418. Heteroduplex analysis and DNA sequencing of coding regions and exon/intron boundaries of two genes (CLDN16 and FGF12) in this interval did not reveal disease-causing mutations. 相似文献

Tightly linked flanking microsatellite markers for the Usher syndrome type I locus on the short arm of chromosome 11. 总被引:4,自引:1,他引:3 下载免费PDF全文

Usher syndrome type I is an autosomal recessive disease characterized by profound congenital hearing impairment and vestibular dysfunction followed by the onset of progressive pigmentary retinopathy in childhood or early adolescence. A locus (USH1C) for one form of this disease was previously assigned to the short arm of chromosome 11 through linkage studies in the Acadian population of southwestern Louisiana. Linkage analyses of a set of microsatellite markers in 27 Acadian families provide evidence that USH1C lies between D11S861 and D11S928. Three markers (D11S419, D11S921, and D11S899) that lie between the flanking markers show no recombination with USH1C, and all 54 chromosomes with the abnormal allele at the disease locus have identical alleles for D11S419 and D11S921. This haplotype was found on only 10 of 50 chromosomes with the normal allele at the disease locus, suggesting a strong founder effect. Of the 54 chromosomes with the abnormal allele, 12 had a divergent allele at D11S899. These results suggest that USH1C is in the 2-3-cM interval between D11S861 and D11S899. 相似文献

Hereditary spastic paraplegia (HSP) is a clinically and genetically heterogeneous group of disorders characterized by insidiously progressive spastic weakness in the legs. Genetic loci for autosomal dominant HSP exist on chromosomes 2p, 14q, and 15q. These loci are excluded in 45% of autosomal dominant HSP kindreds, indicating the presence of additional loci for autosomal dominant HSP. We analyzed a Caucasian kindred with autosomal dominant HSP and identified tight linkage between the disorder and microsatellite markers on chromosome 8q (maximum two-point LOD score 5.51 at recombination fraction 0). Our results clearly establish the existence of a locus for autosomal dominant HSP on chromosome 8q23-24. Currently this locus spans 6.2 cM between D8S1804 and D8S1774 and includes several potential candidate genes. Identifying this novel HSP locus on chromosome 8q23-24 will facilitate discovery of this HSP gene, improve genetic counseling for families with linkage to this locus, and extend our ability to correlate clinical features with different HSP loci. 相似文献

Autosomal Dominant Postaxial Polydactyly, Nail Dystrophy, and Dental Abnormalities Map to Chromosome 4p16, in the Region Containing the Ellis–van Creveld Syndrome Locus 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1 下载免费PDF全文

We have studied a four-generation family with features of Weyers acrofacial dysostosis, in which the proband has a more severe phenotype, resembling Ellis-van Creveld syndrome. Weyers acrofacial dysostosis is an autosomal dominant condition with dental anomalies, nail dystrophy, postaxial polydactyly, and mild short stature. Ellis-van Creveld syndrome is a similar condition, with autosomal recessive inheritance and the additional features of disproportionate dwarfism, thoracic dysplasia, and congenital heart disease. Linkage and haplotype analysis determined that the disease locus in this pedigree resides on chromosome 4p16, distal to the genetic marker D4S3007 and within a 17-cM region flanking the genetic locus D4S2366. This region includes the Ellis-van Creveld syndrome locus, which previously was reported to map within a 3-cM region between genetic markers D4S2957 and D4S827. Either the genes for the condition in our family and for Ellis-van Creveld syndrome are near one another or these two conditions are allelic with mutations in the same gene. These data also raise the possibility that Weyers acrofacial dysostosis is the heterozygous expression of a mutation that, in homozygous form, causes the autosomal recessive disorder Ellis-van Creveld syndrome. 相似文献

Familial amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (FALS) affects 5%-10% of cases of amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) and is inherited as an autosomal dominant condition with incomplete penetrance. One-fifth of these cases of FALS are associated with mutations in copper/zinc-dependent superoxide dismutase (SOD1), but the gene defect in the remaining 80% of familial cases is, as yet, unknown. We have carried out a preliminary genome screen, using a U.K. resource of families lacking SOD1 mutations, to identify other potential disease loci and have identified a putative locus on chromosome 16q12.1-q12.2. The region associated with disease was further refined in the major family that contributed to this result and was localized to D16S409-D16S3032, a 14.74-cM genetic interval that corresponds to a physical distance of 6.6 Mb, which coincides with a region independently identified by two further research groups in the United States and the United Kingdom. 相似文献

Accessory auricular anomaly is a small excrescence of skin that contains elastic cartilage on different regions of the helix and the face. Previous work has shown that the genetic trait of some patients with the isolated symptom of accessory auricular anomaly is autosomal dominant. To map the gene for autosomal dominant accessory auricular anomaly (ADAAA), we investigated a Chinese family with 11 affected individuals. We performed linkage analysis with microsatellite markers spanning the whole human-genome in the family. The inheritance pattern of the ADAAA family was autosomal dominant with complete penetrance. Two-point linkage analysis revealed significant maximum LOD scores of 4.20(D14S990 and D14S264, sita = 0) in the family. Haplotype construction and multipoint linkage analysis also confirmed the locus and defined the isolated ADAAA locus to a 9.84 cM interval between the markers D14S283 and D14S297. Our study assigned an isolated ADAAA locus to 14q11.2–q12. This is the first ADAAA locus reported to date.Y. Yang and J. Guo contribute to this work equally. 相似文献

Weill-Marchesani syndrome (WMS) is a rare disease characterized by short stature, brachydactyly, joint stiffness, and characteristic eye abnormalities, including microspherophakia, ectopia lentis, and glaucoma. Both autosomal recessive and autosomal dominant modes of inheritance have been described in association with WMS. We have performed a genome-wide search in two large consanguineous families of Lebanese and Saudian origin consistent with an autosomal recessive mode of inheritance. Here, we report the linkage of the disease gene to chromosome 19p13.3-p13.2 (Zmax=5.99 at theta=0 at locus D19S906). A recombination event between loci D19S905 and D19S901 defines the distal boundary, and a second recombination event between loci D19S221 and D19S840 defines the proximal boundary of the genetic interval encompassing the WMS gene (12.4 cM). We hope that our ongoing studies will lead to the identification of the disease-causing gene. 相似文献

Summary A linkage analysis has been performed on three Australian families segregating for autosomal dominant retinitis pigmentosa (ADRP). No evidence of linkage has been found in any of the pedigrees studied between the locus D3S47 and the gene for ADRP. The D3S47 locus was found to show very close linkage with the ADRP gene in a large Irish pedigree. Our study together with a similar report on a British family indicates that there is genetic heterogeneity in this disease. 相似文献
